I am currently working on putting together documentation that outlines a project leader's responsibilities, and our foundation's expectations of them.

I am also developing a "How to run a successful OWASP project" document.

An OWASP project lifecycle info graphic is being developed as well.

I hope that these "How To" documents and graphics will help project leaders understand their responsibilities, and how to leverage the OWASP project infrastructure for success.

This is an ongoing operations project.

I will have a first draft of these completed by the end of next week.

Travel availability.

Project based administrative help.

Project status information.

What's happening with projects, questions.
